    What about Wilders record AFTER winning the title, it certainly doesn’t make you feel better!
    Wilders been Champion for 5 years and his defences in that time are against substandard fighters.
    Molina - ranked 37
    Duhaupas - ranked 34
    Szpilka - ranked 24
    Arreola - ranked 43
    Washington - ranked 41
    Stiverne 2 - Unranked, inactive for 3 years
    Breazeale - ranked 15

    You may argue Ortiz 1 but the guy has never beaten anyone in his career, is old and in the minutes before the fight he was advised not to fight by his doctors. That said Wilder still almost lost, Ortiz had Wilder out on his feet, requiring help from the Referee and then gifted 24 extra seconds to recover by the bogus ringside Dr intervention.

    Having TKOd Old man Ortiz, why fight him again?

    Then as Peter Fury says, “they picked Tyson as a cherry pick and it went wrong”.
    Fury won that first fight, two flash knock downs don’t score enough points to negate Fury outboxing Wilder a 10 rounds to 2!

    They’re cherry picking fighters, avoiding mandatory’s and protecting Wilders unbeaten record in an attempt to make him into some kind of historical figure.
    Taking Marciano’s record was/is a key goal but what a travesty for the sport it would be if they were allowed to thieve it in this manner. The fact is Wilder can’t match or better Marciano’s record because he has a draw on his record. So they’re now trying to rewrite the narrative of that Fury draw, talking about it as a KO and ignoring the controversy of the judges decisions.

    It reminds me of Nikolai Valuev almost doing the same thing by fighting exclusively in Russia, beating bums from vodka bars then, when closing in on 49 wins, they tried to steal a couple of name victories to add (false) credibility to his record.

    Finkel, Dibella and the WBC should be investigated!
